Daily Review.

Daily Review.
GAZETTE OFFICE,
FORT WoRTH, TEX, Nov. 80, 1857.
Trade has been brisk with both whole
salers and retailers to-day.
Eggs are little more plentiful and
merchants expect no scarcity OF them for
some time.
Butter is becoming very scarce.
The grain market is brisk.
THE STATE OF TRADE.
Special kilograms to Bradstreet's point
to somewhat irregular trade conditions
during the week, with smaller total vol
ume OF general trade, owing to the OBJ
servsnce of Thanksgiving day. The ad-
vancing tendency to prices in speculative
lines continues, but the reaction leaves
smaller recorded net gains with very &C
tive trading in grain and stocks.
There is good active distribution in
leading lines at Chicago, Cincinnati and
New Orleans; and at Kansas City there is
an excellent demand. Colder weather
has stimulated trade at Chicago; the re-
Gently restricted river traffic causes I'M
usual animation at Cincinnati, and the
large and freely marketed Louisiana
sugar crop has improved the credit of
planters, and encouraged free interior
purchases.
kilograms from the Ohio river valley
show thst the drouth, which was broken
Thursday, was the most severe since 1875,
and that the river reached lowest Level
known. Coal advanced &c per bushel,
owing to the scarcity of Pittsburg sup
plies, and south Of the latter city several
thousand miners have been Idle, owing to
inability to ship by water. The worst of
the drouth was felt in Southern Indians,
Illinois, and south thereof in Kentucky.
Our kilograms of last evening stated sub
stantially that the weather is still cloudy
aad it is raining. The river is beginning
to. rise and the rains have stopped numer-
Gus forest fires, and toned up the bust
ness feeling in the interior, where ct
many points water had for weeks been a
merchantsble article.
The railway employees strike in Texas,
mainly at Houston and Galveston, has not
lnterferPd seriously with traffic except at
those points. The trouble is virtually at
an end. The importations Of British iron
and steel into The United States for ten
months this year amount to l,133, 900
tons, twice as much as in like share of
last year and over three times as much as
in 1885. While the United Kingdom sent
one-eighth of her total iron and steel ex-
ports to the United States in 1885. the
was nearly one quarter last
year and is one-third this year Brad
streets.

A Little Boys Eye Blown Ont.

A few days ago Johnnie Smelling,
a nephew of John Dietrich, of Union
district, aged about twelve years,
met with very painful and danger
Gus accident by which he lost an eye
and narrowly escaped being killed.
The little fellow, as boys sometimes
do, was experimenting with powder,
and to test it's explosive powers he
loaded shot gun shell, drove it into
an auger hole in bar post, tamping
one end of the hole solidly with clay.
To make it explode he first tried
striking the protruding end of the
shell, but it wouldn't go. He then
punched a miniature hole through
the cartridge shell and touched a
match to it. This, of course, made
a terrific explosion, shattering the
post and driving the shell entirely
through Johnnie's eye. DR.. Burchi-
nal was called and the shell removed
On Monday it was thought best tc
prevent disease to remove the re-
mains of the eye ball. DIR. Burchi-
nal called DR.. J. P. Fitch to assist
and the operation was performed
Johnnie is in fair way to recover
